Veterans’ Groups Line up to Reject Money from Trump (if He is Even Raising Any)
The main veterans group that Trump has used for publicity stunts in the past, the Wounded Warrior Project, was the subject of a scathing CBS report and recently lost their tax exempt status. Besides, if Trump is planning on using them, he hasn’t told anyone from the group. Per CNN, the Wounded Warrior Project has not even been contacted by Trump about possibly doing an event tomorrow.
If he is doing it for some other group, they are now lining up to say that they don’t want any money Trump might make off of promoting himself, and will reject it if offered.

This is an obviously slanted piece against Trump but so what... the point is being made, and it is an odd one. Firstly I am saddened by Wounded Warriors losing their tax exempt status by what is reported to be improper use of funds. I have always thought highly of Wounded Warriors personally.
The next shocking tidbit is the veterans groups "lining up" to reject money Trump raises for them. Do they have the authority to refuse monies for use in aiding veterans? Should donations be screened to be sure they are from persons or groups of the correct party or persuasion? I would think anyone or any organization donating for this cause should be welcomed, not rejected. It is like refusing a blood transfusion because it came from someone you may not like. Just odd.
